Anotace

V originále

The current hospitality industry is highly influenced by the pandemics of CoVid 19 and connected national and international measures. Several studies are already proposing the strategies for hospitality industry recovery, and the majority of them do not consider a significant shift in customer behaviour and employee skills and abilities. This study aims to understand the difference in communication with hotel clients in the front office before the pandemics and when the national measures were applied. The study is based on the semi-structures questioning of 59 front-office, HR and operations manager in Prague and their evaluation of several concepts. During the pandemics, the front office employees were mainly handling the request for cancellation of the stay, their move or other reimbursement and information handling via phone or email. Only 12 % of the respondents prepared the training programme for their employees to handle these situations. As the results, we propose sustainable HR, learning and development strategy as the hospitality recovery basics. Quest satisfaction can be the only driver to improve hotels and other accommodation facilities' performance and sustainable operation.
